Mormon Bishop scares off attacker with Samurai sword

(NEWSER) – When Kent Hendrix woke up yesterday to his teenage son telling him someone was being attacked in front of their house, he did what any self-respecting Mormon bishop/martial arts instructor/fourth-degree black belt holder/weapons collector would do: He grabbed his Samurai sword, ran outside, drew the sword on the attacker, and then ran after the man—barefoot. Suspect Grant Eggersten got away, but Hendrix picked up a ChapStick he dropped and memorized his license plate. "I yelled at him, 'I've got your DNA and I've got your license plate: You are so done,'" Hendrix recalls.
